Jump!

After watching this clip by the aptly named "DTMenthusiast" I keep wondering why DTM even bothers to exist in its present form. Watch the best tin top action ever knowing many, many control arms were harmed in the making of this video.

The V8 SuperCar series down in Australia seems to be the closest thing we have to that era of DTM. It's not just the cars that are more boring, it's also the circuits. All in the name of safety. Which leads me to ponder...is safety killing auto racing?

Fucking song Nazis. That video rocked no matter the music. One of the best videos I've seen in recent history. I have to agree that early 90s DTM racing was perhaps the peak of the touring car era, but current BTCC, WTCC and DTM is surprisingly interesting even when compared to the DTM of old.
